Clark, William (28 NOV 1873 - 27 MAR 1949)


William Clark Laid To Rest

Funeral services for William W. Clark were held last Wednesday afternoon at the Methodist church at 2:30 o’clock. The Rev Raymond J. Fleming officiated with burial in the West Spencer cemetery.

Mr. and Mrs. Clark moved to Spencer in 1900 from Cascade and settled on a farm east of the village and a few years later they purchased a farm a half mile south of here where they resided for 20 years. Because of poor health, he retired from farming and lived in the village until 1944 when he and Mrs. Clark went to Milwaukee to live with their son-in-law and daughter, Mr. and Mrs. Charels [Charles] Thomas. The Clarks observed their golden wedding in 1946. Mr. Clark was a director of the Spencer school Board for a number of years.

Out-of-town relatives and friends attending the funeral were Mrs. Harvey Liebenstein and son Wesley, and Mrs. Albert Butters, Cascade; Mrs. William Ford, Waldo; Mr. and Mrs. Charles Robinson and Mr. and Mrs. Heath Walden, New Lisbon; Mr. and Mrs. Gust Carlson, Unity; Mr. and Mrs. Guy Wyman, Wausau; Mr. and Mrs. Earl Reas and daughter, Ramona, Mellen; Mr. and Mrs. Strey, Loyal; and Misses Winifred and Mildred Wilson, Marshfield.

Mrs. F. V. McIlhattan, Mrs. George Haywrd, Mrs. Bert Baldwin, Mrs. S. E. Graves, Mrs. Ora Schaefer and Mrs. Effie Ringer carried flowers at the funeral.
